We were in the movie theater, close to the climax of the movie.
I looked over at my best friend, who I had invited to see the movie with me, and I noticed that she was quietly crying just like I was.
We weren't the only ones. All around the theater, soft sniffles could be heard.
Just then, the climax of the movie shocked everyone in the room.
Not a breath was heard in the room.
Out of the corner of my eyesight, I saw a lone tear roll out of my friend's brown eye, glide down her cheek, and splash off her chin.
I could feel the same thing happening on my face as we leaned against each other.
I always cried at the end of that movie. It was amazing.
